Chapter Ten

Li Linfu and Chen Xilie, one is scheming and the other is gentle and wise. When they get together, they also have a look at Pei Min and Gao Lishi, which is a reflection of everything.

The two of them talked about everything, just like a long-time friend who had been away from him, talking about the situation in life.

They talked about each other's experiences.

Needless to say, Pei Min respected him very much and left him with many things to take care of.

There are many things in the Western Regions, and what he said is interesting.

Chen Xilie's experience was a bit boring. Although he was a two-time college student and had a high status, he had no substantial achievements.

Chen Xilie himself was also very sad for this.

Especially when he saw Li Linfu, whom he had originally looked down upon, was talking loudly in front of him and could only echo the audience, the inexplicable loss made him feel very uncomfortable.

Li Linfu said a lot and pretended to be inadvertently asking about the current trends in Chang'an.

Chen Xilie also knew everything and said everything.

He is in the officialdom and is deeply favored by Li Longji. He knows a lot and says it in detail.

Chen Xilie also took it for granted that he had been talking about the major events in the past six months, such as Zhang Shuo’s departure from the courtesy, and the most favored Concubine Yang Jie and Wang Hui, whom Li Longji had recently favored.

Chen Xilie sighed very much: Alas, this person is lucky, God will help him. Wang Hui first received the recommendation of his friend Yang Shenjin and entered the temple. He also won the favor of the emperor because of a good cousin. In just two years, he actually held the eleventh position, and his power in his hands is not as good as that of the prime minister. According to this momentum, in just three or five years, Wang Hui may be able to climb to the position of the court.

Speaking of this, Chen Xilie was a little envious.

As a civil official, my biggest goal in life is to be the prime minister?

Even if it only takes one year, it is something worth bragging about. The glory of being able to return home in glory.

However, Chen Xilie could only feel in his dream that he could one day become the prime minister.

Li Linfu was also a little envious. While envious, he was a little jealous of the lucky Wang Hui. He narrowed his eyes and said: I have heard of Wang Hui's situation in Guzang. He felt that if Wang Hui had worked for a longer time, his foundation would be more stable. This time, Mr. Zhang was demoted, he might even be directly the prime minister of the country. Speaking of this, he had a look of regret: It's a pity that I have no foundation in Chang'an, otherwise I could compete for the position this time.

Chen Xilie said ridiculously: I can understand Brother Lin Fu's mood. Just the prime minister of this country, how can you say it? No one recommends it, or Your Majesty is unsatisfied, lacks qualifications, and has an inequality in status and status. Unless Brother Lin Fu can get the full support of Duke Pei, you should have the heart to die. Besides, Duke is a foreign minister, a foreign minister, who interferes in major affairs of the prime minister. Isn't you afraid that Your Majesty will be suspicious?

Li Linfu shook his head and said: Pei Shuai's personality is well known to everyone. How could he recommend me innocently? What I mean is that Brother Wang Hui, don't you think Wang Hui's appearance is beautiful and his actual status is a bit awkward?

Chen Xilie asked: Where to start?

Li Linfu smiled and said: Wang Hui rose too quickly, so he had no foundation in the court. Moreover, he climbed too high all of a sudden, and even had a higher power than ordinary ministers, so it was inevitable that he would feel disgusted. Low-class officials were disdainful to interact, and high-class officials had their own circles, and he would not be able to integrate into it for a while.

Chen Xilie's expression moved, he had indeed heard of some of this.

Wang Hui’s reputation in the court was indeed not very good. Everyone respected him three points, but not many people were willing to interact with him.

Li Linfu said with a leisurely nature: He lacks an ally with certain qualifications. As long as someone is willing to cooperate with him and make good contacts, he can use his power to become the prime minister.

A strange look flashed in Chen Xilie's eyes and asked: Will Wang Hui agree?

Li Linfu smiled and said: As long as he is not stupid and has ambition, he will definitely agree. An ally with the same interests has entered the ranks of prime ministers, and his power is no less than that of the auxiliary ministers. The two sides rely on each other, so where does it take Li Yuanhong's expression?

Chen Xilie was moved, but he looked at Li Linfu with some vigilance and said: Brother Linfu, you are helping me so much, but for some reason?

Li Linfu was not surprised at all. He was gentle, but he was undoubtedly a smart person.

What Brother Chen saw was that after Brother Chen got the position, he hoped that after Brother Chen would not forget his merits, and he would summon him into the capital.

Chen Xilie looked at Li Linfu in surprise and said: Brother Linfu is not staying well with the Duke of the Kingdom?

No! Li Linfu shook his head and said: The Duke treats someone very well, and he does not treat him at all. It’s just that people are not water, so he always has to go to a higher place. The Duke’s future has almost reached its peak, and we can no longer improve under his command. When a Duke followed the Duke, the purpose was to seek fame. He was transferred back to the capital to fight hard. Now I am famous enough and lack the opportunity to transfer back. As long as I can return to the capital, I believe that with my current fame, I will at least become the Minister of the Minister of the Court in just two or three years. I am lucky as Brother Chen today, and the time, place and people are all there, and it is still unknown.

Chen Xilie suddenly realized that he agreed to Li Linfu's request, but he took it seriously in his heart. In the future, he took it as Li Linfu said, and needed to use Wang Hui's power to obtain the position of auxiliary priest. Li Linfu must not be allowed to come back.

As for the talent Li Linfu showed today, if he comes back, will he still have his own status?

I have to say that Chen Xilie is still extremely vigilant.

In history, he was the one who made Li Linfu lose his power and was named the prime minister, but he had no power and simply put it on the name.

Li Linfu didn't care what Chen Xilie thought. He had already seen through Li Longji's thoughts in his heart.

After all, Emperor Li Longji was a great man who provoked two coups. Even though his personality had huge flaws, his skills of weighing the two sides were unquestionable.

Zhang Shuo's demotion has already made Li Yuanhong's moderate anti-war faction dominant.

On the surface, Yu Wenrong has the greatest chance and is most optimistic, but in fact, the most unlikely one is Yu Wenrong.

Chen Xilie is not a member of the pro-war faction, and he has no military ability at all. It is impossible for Li Longji to promote him as a supporting role

Neither of them is suitable for Li Longji's heart. The more powerful they are, the more disgusting Li Longji will be, so that both sides can get rid of him together.

Chen Xilie and Li Linfu had their own thoughts, but they could not see their faces when they were talking. They were like brothers who had not seen each other for many years, and they had a great time talking.

It was not until midnight that Li Linfu said goodbye and left.

Chen Xilie enthusiastically sent Li Linfu to the outside of the mansion, and lent his carriage to Li Linfu, asking him to ride his carriage back.
